What a minuet.
The minuet is a French dance in 3/4 time, for two people.
They're actually very nice style of music!
The style is supposedly french, but apparently Italian people write them too. I quite like this one:

You don't disappoint, Anne. :P
Unfortunately, I'm not very knowledgable when it comes to the various subtypes of classical piece classification, so I don't have much to contribute. 3/4's a nice time signature to compose within, though. Much better than that prick, 7/8.
Oh, and here's what a minuet dance looks like apparently:
Alex:I I don't know much about classical music either. I'm learning more abut the minuet as we speak.
I've composed in 3/4 before. My song Henry VI is in 3/4, though it is in no way similar to a minuet.
Irrelevant, but awesome.
A little more contemporary.
One interesting thing about Gregorian Chants is how they were a core musical staple of the high to late medieval periods while the Church was the central authority of organised art. They were both the pop music and high art music of their day.
Gothic polyphony!

This is a good thing.
Does it seem less colorful? Does it bug you that it has less of a delineated beat than most pop music? Is it the use of dynamic within each instrument?
